Turning the Projector on

Note that the connections to external equip- ment and power outlet should be done be- fore performing the operations written be- low. (See pages 21 to 24.)

Remove the lens cap and press STANDBY/ON on the projector or ON on the remote control.

•The power indicator illuminates green.

•After the lamp indicator illuminates, the projec- tor is ready to start operation.

Note

•About the Lamp Indicator

The lamp indicator illuminates to indicate the status of the lamp.

Green: The lamp is on.

Blinking in green: The lamp is warming up.

Red: The lamp is shut down abnormally or the lamp should be replaced.

•When switching on the projector, a slight flicker- ing of the image may be experienced within the first minute after the lamp has been illuminated. This is normal operation as the lamp’s control circuitry is stabilising the lamp output character- istics. It should not be regarded as faulty operation.

•If the projector is put into standby mode and immediately turned on again, the lamp may take some time to start projection.

•When System Lock is set, the keycode input box appears. To cancel the keycode setting, input the keycode that you have already set. See page 46 for details.

Info

•When “Auto Restart” is set to “On”:

If the power cord is unplugged from the outlet or the breaker switch is turned off when the projector is on, then the projector automatically turns on when the power cord is plugged into the AC outlet or the breaker switch is turned on. (See page 45.)

•English is the factory default language. If you want to change the on-screen display to an- other language, change the language accord- ing to the procedure on page 44.
